The ENVE M70 Thirty 26 inch Wheelset is the even burlier replacement to the AM-series rim. Taking lessons learned from ENVE’s World Cup DH program, the M70 Thirty has been designed specifically for hard-charging riders who earn their runs by pedalling back up to the top. With a generous internal width, and an even stronger redesigned profile, this rim is ready to take whatever you can throw at it, and come back begging for more.

When ENVE set about designing the M70 Thirty, the goal was to build a rim that was stronger and more capable than the AM rim. Unsurprisingly, the team in Ogden delivered in spades. The 26 inch M70 Thirty rim now weighs 508 grams, making it slightly heavier than the AM rim, but the payoff is increased width, to better accommodate today’s larger tires, and astounding strength. Part of the strength increase comes from trading in traditional bead hooks for a redesigned beadless hook bead, which is both lighter and more impact resistant. The width is a whopping 25mm internally, which provides a round tire profile, for greater cornering stability, and more rubber on the ground at any given time. Anyone who’s familiar with ENVE knows the fanatical lengths that its engineers go to in order to achieve a perfect ride feel. Accordingly, the M70 Thirty has been tuned to provide a degree of vertical compliance, enhancing both grip and rider comfort, without sacrificing the fantastic lateral rigidity that endows ENVE with the “on rails” feeling for which they’re prized.

Enve are a collection of cyclists, friends and innovators who set out to try and build a brand that encompassed all the little things that they thought were important, but were overlooked by others.
Formerly Edge until a trademark issue forced a change of name, Enve has an exceptionally strong composites background, specifically in the bicycle industry; with their engineers having worked for stalwarts such as Schwinn/GT, Specialized, Felt, Reynolds and Easton, amassing over 30 years of experience in carbon composite technology in the process. Starting out manufacturing tubing for a number of bike manufacturers, ENVE have grown and established themselves in their own right and are proud to produce all their wheelsets in house at their headquarters in Ogden, Utah.

Here's what they have to say:'ENVE, by our definition, is the burning desire to get to or create the perfect solution. As we all realize this is an unobtainable goal as the world around us consistently changes, we intend to pursue and even ENVE the final destination. Every product that bears the ENVE name is the result of this burning passion. Each rim, wheel, and component is designed with form, functionality, and beauty in mind. It is Our Culture, it is Our Goal and it will always be Our Way.'

The goal of the M Series is to produce the lightest, strongest, fastest wheel for every application. The 5 wheel models cover every riding scenario we can think of. We optimized the rim shapes for durability, stiffness, compliance, and traction so your days will end in smiles and podiums - not repair stands. There is no better mountain wheel on the planet.
